-
Which row operation is invalid because it changes the solution set?
Answer: Multiplying by zero
Why: Multiplying an entire row by zero destroys all the constraints represented by that equation, changing the system's solutions.
-
The number of pivot columns in a coefficient matrix determines what property?
Answer: Number of basic variables
Why: Basic variables correspond to the pivot columns, while the remaining columns represent the free variables that can take any value.
-
Which theorem compares coefficient and augmented matrix ranks?
Answer: Rouché-Capelli theorem
Why: Spain and Latin America call this same result the Rouché-Frobenius theorem, while Poland and Russia know it as Kronecker-Capelli.
-
On a graph, what shows the one solution to two linear equations?
Answer: The point where lines intersect
Why: Parallel lines never meet, so that system has no solution, while identical lines overlap everywhere and give infinitely many.
-
What formula uses determinants to solve systems of linear equations?
Answer: Cramer's rule
Why: Cramer's rule is elegant but computationally expensive for large systems compared to row reduction methods.
-
Which matrix factorization requires a symmetric, positive-definite matrix?
Answer: Cholesky decomposition
Why: Cholesky decomposition is twice as fast as LU decomposition for solving symmetric positive-definite systems of linear equations.
